Community Service @ WLA

Community Service is an opportunity for students to serve others, while developing important leadership and self-management skills.

DC high school graduates must have at least 100 hours. This is an opportunity for WLA students to further personalize their educational experience and participate in project-based learning in their communities.

WLA students are encouraged to find meaningful community service opportunities. some examples include a local recreation center, a religious institution, a senior home, or a food bank. These opportunities will allow students to explore college and career interests, build on skills developed in the classroom, and cultivate their personal networks.
